Abstract
Putative access channel for NADH in the heme-distal pocket of cytochrome P450nor (P450nor) comprises many charged amino acid residues. Characterization of the E71A mutant protein of P450nor highlights the existence of a unique mechanism for binding NADH that depends on the salt bridge network between Glu71, Arg64 and Asp88.
